Review

By skateboardin

A playful parody chock full of casual cruelty, misogyny, ableism, and racism. There is sincerely funny stuff here, but you’ll need to sit through a _lot_ of junk to see it.


By Mouseater

A movie from a time when people were not so easily offended. Lots of fun humor and laughs to be had if you sit back and enjoy the movie for what it is, a comedy from the 70s.
